Cliff,

I believe the reason for having the "Limit FPS" is because those of us with faster computers running at extreme rates like 100 fps and above were just using wasted CPU cycles and creating excess heat.

Why run your CPU HOT at 80% when you can limit the fps to say 50, and in doing so your CPU usage is only 15% and running much cooler. Cooler equals a longer life
